    What's the life expectancy on this barrel

    Thanks for all the great info gentlemen. I'm gonna look into a BO break and everything else that I want to do to this rifle. I figured that even if the barrel gives me half of the average life (2500-3000 rounds) it'll be a couple of years before I would have to change it at the rate that I go...

    What's the life expectancy on this barrel

    I had read on other forums that after 1800-2000 you start to notice the inconsistency. Not sure if that's on a CS barrel or SS. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

    What's the life expectancy on this barrel

    Does anyone have first hand info on an average round count of store bought 168-175 FGM SMK 308 through a Remi 700 5R SS Milspec, before it loses accuracy or the barrel is considered done and needs replacing. I just want to know if it's worth doing all the work that I have in mind. Or wait and do...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns glock or smith?

    I 2nd that. If you still want to stay with a good quality hand gun then I would go with an XDm in either 9 or 40. I have a G19 ,G23 & an XDm9 and the XDm by far shows a noticable quality diffrence. Both are just as fun to shoot .

    Bipod issue

    Well I called McMillan customer service today in regards to that. And before I can finish explaining to him my concern he stopped me and told me not to worry about it. It turns out that I'm not the only one calling about this. He said just as long as the two rubber pieces on top of the bipod...

    Bipod issue

    Rifle Scopes Need a scope

    Yes illumination is what I meant to say, damn spellcheck on my phone and it was doing it again on this reply. I prefer the illumination (damn again) but if I were to find something nice without it then it wouldn't be an issue.

    To long

    Alright gentlemen I'm hoping that this is a quick fix. I revived my Mcmillan A5 with BO M5 and when I was bolting the barrel action I noticed that the bolts went past into the action and now the action Bolt is hitting the top of the bolts holding the action. So could it be that they sent me...
